The British airliners we see today in our airports are the result of numerous takeovers and mergers involving large and small companies. "Gone but not forgotten" examines several of the airlines that have ceased operating since 1945: some collapsed because of financial difficulties, whereas others were taken over by larger airlines. In post-war Britain, several small airlines were founded and equipped with surplus military aircraft, the most popular being the Douglas Dakota. This volume is a guide to each airline, accompanied by a brief historical account and contemporary images of the aircraft in their distinctive colour schemes. Covering seventy defunct British airlines, this book looks at both international and domestic companies, including a whole host of famous names, who are gone, but not forgotten.

In the early twentieth century there was a war brewing on Britain's doorstep. Northern Ireland was filled with discrimination and suspicion, a sense of foreboding that would soon erupt into full-blown rioting. As the fiftieth anniversary of the Troubles approaches, Ken Wharton takes a thorough look at the start of the Troubles, the precursors and the explosion of violence in 1969 that would last until the Good Friday Agreement in 1998. In all, the Troubles cost 50,000 casualties and nearly 2,000 civilians' lives across Northern Ireland, the Republic and England. Utterly condemnatory of the paramilitaries, Wharton pulls no punches in his assessment of the situation then and seeks to dismiss apologists today. His sympathy lies first with those tasked with keeping order in the province, but also with the innocent civilians caught up in thirty years of bloodshed. Torn Apart is an in-depth look at the start of the Troubles, looking at the seminal moments and Northern Ireland today using the powerful testimony of those who were there at the time.

Spitfire Pilot is the exhilarating and moving memoir of D. M. Crook, an airman in the legendary 609 Squadron - one of the most successful RAF units in the Battle of Britain. Beginning with his fond recollections of his halcyon days in training - acrobatics, night flying and languorous days spent playing sport and nights off visiting Piccadilly Circus - Crook goes on to recount in thrilling detail the dogfights, remarkable victories and tragic losses which formed the daily routine of Britain's heroic aerial defenders in that long summer of 1940. Often hopelessly outnumbered, the men of 609 Squadron in their state-of-the-art Spitfires committed acts of unimaginable bravery against the Messerschmitts and Junkers of Germany's formidable Luftwaffe. Many of Crook's fellow airmen did not make it back alive, and the absence they leave in the close-knit community of the squadron is described with great poignancy. Spitfire Pilot offers a unique and personal insight into one of the most critical moments of British history, when a handful of men stood up against the might of the German Air Force in defence of their country. This definitive edition, the first for more than sixty years, includes a new foreword by David Crook's daughter and Air Vice Marshal Sandy Hunter, Honorary Air Commodore of the 609 Squadron. The book also has an introduction by Professor Richard Overy.

Miles was pacing the hospital corridor, white faced and strained. Prince bought three coffees from a vending machine taking a gulp out of one. He poured a liberal quantity of brandy into the cup, and gave it to Miles, who drank it oblivious of the flavour. Teetotal Prince kept drinks in his caravan for such occasions; whilst safety was improving by leaps and bounds, motorsport was cruel; serious, sometimes fatal accidents still occurred, mistakes, driver error, mechanical failure, possible causes. Shepherd told Prince, Kens lost both legs below the knee. Turning, Jeff said, Im sorry Miles, how is he otherwise? Theyre keeping him sedated to minimise the shock; its not life threatening. He wont accept life in a wheelchair. Miles; Ken has the character to adjust to anything. He may need a wheelchair for a while, but modern prosthetic legs are excellent, you or he can afford the best. Hell walk. We must encourage him. The surgeon faxed a chap in Switzerland; hes flying here as we speak. Theyll discuss options on his arrival. Because its Ken, Im squeamish; Ive given him carte blanche to sort it. I can understand that. By the way champ, congratulations, he said shaking his hand. Thanks, it feels hollow. Ken should have won that race, and his first championship. We both know, if he couldnt be champion, theres no-one other than you he would rather see champion. Turning to Shepherd, Have we determined the cause? Shepherd acquainted him of their conversation. The experimental frame was nowhere to be found. Miles paled further, and Jeff forced a quantity of brandy into him, whilst he digested the information. After a short period of thought, he told them he would have someone find the cause; because of Kens accident, and Jeffs departure to race cars, he wouldnt run a team next year. Five years would elapse before Miles returned.
